Opinion: Only If Intelligence Matters In The Politics Of Offa By Abdulraheem Sheriffdeen
In a community like offa where most development accrued are community self strive, while 70% of economic edifices are owned by individuals. The first community in Africa that built a complete mopol Barack with donations, such community needs maximum cooperation amongst her citizenry to oars for more developmental projects
Reminiscent back to the just concluded state house of assembly election, where we recorded youths that are intellectually drive cutting across parties to contest, such as ambassador salaudeen A. Lukman, Hon. Abdulwasiu Hameed Ajibola, Hon. Teslim sani abba, Hon. Princess Folashade Sherifat KEJI and others, rolling out ideas and innovations that will sees offa propelling in economy, infrastructure, security, health care, human capital development among others. The experience and aura during the time was impressive and worth while. Only if Hon. Seun oguniyi Adato and Hon Yusuf Gbenga JK are progressive and courageous enough to summon and induct their ideas with theirs, until then we can have real solutions and experience growth in offa.
Only if we see political party as mere platform to contest and not a cult group, while we see offa as our first identity and source, not until then we can be intellectually wise. Only if an APC chieftain can become a PDP member, vice versa, for the sake of community interest, not until then our aspirations of attaining the highest political position in Kwara and Nigeria at large will stop being a wilde goose chase. Only if our influential and celebrated leaders and
Wealthier will support talents irrespective of their background and political affiliation, not until then we can have a proud coming generations.
Only if youth start promoting youth without envying each others success, whereas Ibrahim gboyega write and muftau Mubarak SHITTU publish it with his blog for wider awareness, when the business tycoon “Famous baba” business brand being promoted by the popular media journalist “Jimoh Taofeeq Adekunle, only if the tech guru “Ridwan Abdulyekeen can create an online class for All knowledge inquisitive youths without taken kobo, only if comrade nurudeen Akere can sponsor comrade Abdulraheem Sheriffdeen and comrade hammed tajudeen Anderson for their master program, not until then we can be free from burdens.
To all talented and capacitated youth, local government election is around the corner, let elude using our God endowment on destructive propaganda, rather let navigate our brilliance on issue based maladies ravaging our community. Let support youth with vast experience in both within and outside offa environs. We can’t continue to be a media aid and supporters with no substantial career job. Not until when intelligence matters in politics of offa, we can never get it right.
